Abstract
The first attempt to map the 'corner cult' of the long nineteenth century in literature, architecture, furniture and art. The corner was a marginal zone where real life took place, for better and for worse ('dark corners'). Emile Zola defined the work of art as a 'corner of nature seen through a temperament'.
